Small mammals pack

Yes we have some small mammals but I still miss some species: and since we have prerie dogs and meerkats I think they could make even for habitat animals:

black and rufous sengi: Elephant shrews are cute, interesting mammals I only meet with the small rounded-eared one in zoos. But this one is larger and may have more prettier apperance.

Other interesting and endangered animal which rarely but can be found in zoos is the venomous hispaniolan solenodon.

Next is a squirel for this now I go with the european red squirrel akthought there is plenty other species. Even much larger ones. Bc it's a tree climbing animal may a walkthrought exhibit would fit better

A little bit larger but also unique squirrel the alpine marmot. It wouls add one more mountein animal.

Alhtough it's bzarre apperance many zoos keep them and I could imagime them as exhibit animal with tunnels. They are the only mammals which live in insect like colonie srtuctures.

From south Anerica the red rumped agouti
 
Out of those i would pick:

1. Sengi
2. Streaked tenrec
3. Naked mole rat (ex)
4. Spotted cuscús
5. Greater bilby
6. Red rumped agouti
7. Black tailed jackarabbit
8. Three banded armadillo

But also. Where monkeys? All the tamarins and marmosets fit in this right?
 
Yes I just wanted to go with rodents, insectivores and marsupials and maybe a primate whishlist later. But yes marmosets, tamarins, galagos, mouse lemurs, slow loris, tarsiers would also would go well with it.
Also small carnivores like mustelids, mongooses, civets, genets would fit in too.
